Throughout the history, Spain have regularly produced some of the best midfielders of the game – mostly during their golden generation which started in the second half of the last decade. Xabi Alonso, Xavi, Iniesta, Marcos Senna, Santi Cazorla, David Silva, Juan Mata, Cesc Fabregas, Sergio Busquets and many more were the creme de la creme of midfielders at their peak. Even after that legendary set of midfielders, Spain have hardly struggled for quality in the middle of the park thanks to the likes of Koke emerging.
A midfielder with all the talents that one aspires of, Koke would fit in any team in the world and if Simeone leaves the club, he could surely be on his way out as well. Still just 25 years of age, the Spanish midfield maestro has a big future ahead of him and it is hard to believe that that will be at Vicente Calderon.

About the author
Snehanjan Banerjee
Snehanjan is a journalist at Sportskeeda covering European football news. A hardcore Liverpool fan for over two decades, he has been covering the game since the past 8 years and always strives to give readers relevant, accurate and credible content.
Snehanjan developed an interest in football at a very young age, thanks to his father watching football on TV. His favorite player is club legend Steven Gerrard and his favorite manager is another legend in Jurgen Klopp. The ‘Miracle of Istanbul’ i.e., Liverpool beating AC Milan in the 2005 UEFA Champions League final left an indelible mark on him. He believes that Liverpool is a family unlike other top clubs, which sets them apart.
Snehanjan also follows Indian Super League and the I-League, although the latter is closer to his heart. If he could change a rule in football, it would be VAR not pointing out mistakes of on-field officials unless they are clear and obvious errors. Outside the football world, Snehanjan likes to explore the various genres of music and watch movies and shows on OTT. He’s also a car enthusiast and likes to follow the automobile world.
